They really have discovered what it takes to bring learning to life. This combined use of hands-on and brain power learning is what the Osmo Super Studio is based on. Well, this mom was given a wake up call with a couple of our children that struggled in their studies until I learned to involve their minds and bodies in learning. Of course you could ask the obvious question.Does learning need to be fun? I’ve always been in the camp that learning is necessary and not all subjects will be fun or interesting. I’ll gladly add the other two stars once there’s a solution for those of us that need to use Guided Access.How do you make learning fun? This has been a question that I have struggled with for decades as a homeschool mom. We need to be able to just leave the iPads plugged in on their bases and open for use, and know that they aren’t being used for anything else. Guided Access is a big deal to us because we have these iPads set up as dedicated learning stations that are out of our sight. While this would have an effect on required iPad resources, it should be fine since this is the only thing these iPads are used for. a single app that includes all of the Osmo games).

The fundamental flaw is that there isn’t a version of this app that is compatible with Guided Access (i.e. I’ll add a star once this bug has been corrected. And for what it’s worth, this launcher opens the Numbers Toybox correctly (Osmo’s other paid app). I should mention that the Word Explorers app open correctly from it’s own icon, so the problem is definitely this launcher app. It keeps directing me to buy the Genius Kit, which I already have installed, and my son has played at length. The bug is that it won’t open the Word Explorers app (the paid app, not the one that came with the Genius Kit).

This umbrella “launcher” app works pretty well for how it was designed, but it has a bug and a fundamental flaw.
